CHAPTER 1 - STRANGE STUDENT

Guanling High School was a top high school in Huashan Province Province. It was established a hundred years ago, and the Ninghua that it resided in was a beautiful and outstanding place. Since ancient times, there have been more than a hundred famous people that had an impact on China and the world.

Even those who killed pigs by the side of the road and sold meat could sing a few poems. Under the influence of such an environment, the Guanling High School had even nurtured groups and groups of cultural celebrities.

It was because of this that many parents in the Ninghua and even those in the outer cities hoped for their children to be admitted into the Guanling High School. As long as they entered this high school, their parents would gain a lot of face in the midst of their family and friends. As for the students who entered this high school, they worked even harder, afraid that they would fall behind. Thus, the most common sight in this school was for students to either walk quickly with their heads down and head to the classroom to study, or to carry a textbook and study its contents while walking along the verdant forest paths of the campus. Many students even went to the toilet, where they would usually hold a book written in English and read it aloud with a smoky air.

But no matter how good this school was, there would always be a group of students who had not progressed much in their studies. They were either bought by their parents with large sums of money, or they were eliminated from the competition and lost their confidence. In short, they were a group of undesirable students in this school.

Today was Saturday, and the students were on vacation. In these three to four months, the Guanling High School campus, which was leaning against the Tung Shan, appeared even more green, like a spring breeze. Those who didn't go home were sitting around under the old tree on the hill behind the school in groups of twos and threes, studying.

Halfway up the mountain, there was a small pavilion that had been built at an unknown time. The four stone pillars within the pavilion were filled with countless elegant poetry written on them by those who had come to play since ancient times, giving them a unique flavor.

At this moment, he saw a boy in a faded yellow old shirt and black rimmed eyes leaning against a pillar of the pavilion, leisurely reading an old bound book. At this moment, a cool breeze blew and waves of green water appeared. From the way the boy was immersed in the book, one could tell how pleased he was to be reading it.

The pavilion was originally a very good place to go, and the students usually liked to take a book out to read. But today, as soon as they entered the pavilion, they felt an unpleasant odour rush into their noses. If they took a closer look, they would discover that it originated from the boy. The boy, on the other hand, seemed to have not noticed their peculiar gazes and continued to immerse himself in the book world with satisfaction.

At this moment, a girl walked over from the path at the foot of the mountain.

The girl had a head full of short hair and wore a light blue school uniform. She had big eyes. Although she wasn't very pretty, the confident look on her face made those girls who were much prettier pale in front of her.

The girl held a few textbooks in her hands. Clearly, she had also come outside to study. At the foot of the mountain, she saw only one person sitting in the pavilion. She was a person who liked peace and quiet, and upon seeing this, she couldn't help but feel happy and walk towards the pavilion.

However, when she got closer to the pavilion and saw the person sitting in it, the girl seemed to be extremely surprised. She shouted at the boy in surprise: Lin Jin, didn't you faint yesterday and get hospitalized? Why did you come here to read a book?"

Lin Jin turned his head to look, and saw that it was the class's second in command, the group secretary, Xu Bin, called for him. He then replied indifferently, "I am just suffering from dizziness. I have an old problem with it. In the morning, I went out in the afternoon. Actually, it's not that big of a deal. Saying that, he shook his head, as if mocking himself. Lin Jin said that he was suffering from dizziness, but only he knew the truth.

Xu Bin replied with an Oh and without thinking any further, entered the pavilion to read. In her eyes, this Lin Jin was simply an unremarkable nobody in their class. Normally, he would sit in a corner of the classroom and didn't like to talk much. His grades were sometimes good and sometimes bad, hanging from the middle to bottom of the class. He was one of a group of people that people didn't like, keeping a low profile. Moreover, he had a very ordinary appearance, one that could not be found within the crowd. If it wasn't for his position, Xu Bin would probably be like the majority of the students in his class who only knew how to read, not knowing his name.

Lin Jin actually had a good impression of this lively and capable secretary. Although he treated people coldly, others would always ignore him, causing many of the students who talked to him to feel unhappy, and were also unwilling to ignore him. However, Xu Bin didn't seem to be disgusted by him at all, instead, he talked to him a few times about his academic performance. Although Lin Jin did not resist, refuse or follow his instructions, in the end, Xu Bin had no choice but to give up teaching him. He was not like the other students who treated him as a stranger. It was the same as greeting him, no matter what the benefits were. Although it was just a small matter, it still made Lin Jin feel human.

After entering the pavilion, Xu Bin wrinkled his nose and muttered to himself: What kind of strange smell is this? It smells so bad! He was fanning the air with a book.

Hearing that, Lin Jin glanced at her, his free right hand quietly reaching into the cloth bag on his back, a gust of wind blew past, and the strange smell in the pavilion immediately disappeared.

Seeing that the strange smell was gone, Xu Bin was not surprised. He used a handkerchief to wipe off the stone bench in the pavilion, and when he saw that Lin Jin was reading again, he laughed: I say, Lin Jin, you did not release the strange smell, did you? She was about to say fart but suddenly remembered that he didn't know him well enough to say such indecent words, so he changed his words to waste gas. However, his face was a little red.

How would Lin Jin know about her little tricks? He continued to read without looking back. This was also what Xu Bin had asked him. If it was anyone else, they would not even be able to say half a word.

Seeing him like this, Xu Bin was suddenly annoyed in his heart. In the entire class, perhaps he was the only one who treated him with such cold attitude. He was about to say a few more words, but when he thought about it, the way he treated others, including his teacher, was the same. This was only due to his personality, so he could only bitterly pick up his book and read it.

She looked at it for a while, and for some reason, she was unable to look inside. When she lifted her head to look, she saw Lin Jin with the tattered book in his hands, staring at it with narrowed eyes. She could not help but ask curiously: Lin Jin, what kind of book are you reading? Why does it look so lousy?"

Lin Jin adjusted his glasses and said casually: It's just a book from the Qing Dynasty, you don't understand!

Xu Bin was annoyed when he heard it, and said angrily: Only you know, normally you don't study well, and only look at these useless things, no wonder your grades don't go up. Show me the book. Let me see what the hell you read.

Lin Jin smiled at her, but did not say a word, and continued to read his book.

Seeing Lin Jin ignoring her, Xu Bin suddenly became angry for some reason. He put down the teaching materials in his hands and was about to go and snatch his books.

Lin Jin did not pay attention to see his five fingers that were like spring onions grabbing onto the yellowing pages of the book. He was shocked and anxiously shouted: Don't, don't, this book is not crappy, can't I let you read it? Don't break it." He carefully let go of his hand.

After snatching the book, Xu Bin, who had never seen Lin Jin like this before, couldn't help but feel proud when he saw how nervous he looked.

She brought the book in front of her and saw that it was thin, yellow and fragile. There were quite a few cracks at the binding place, as if it would fall apart at any moment of contact. No wonder Lin Jin was so careful. Furthermore, the cover of the book was no longer there, only the yellow title page had a calligraphy word written out with a brush. According to Xu Bin's calculations, it should be a script book, he just did not recognize the specific words, but from the number of words, it should be what Lin Jin said, the Inscriptions of the Heavens. When he flipped it open, he saw that it was filled with small words written with a brush. The words were written very beautifully, but with a one yard long body, it made Xu Bin's head look as big as an ox. It was exactly as Lin Jin said – I can't understand it. He could only throw the book back at him angrily.

Lin Jin carefully caught it. Seeing that it was not damaged, he finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Hey, is this stupid book really so good? You spend most of your time reading these weird books, but I've never seen you read these textbooks a few times. If you put all your effort into studying these random books, your grades won't be so bad. You know, right now we only have one year left until the college entrance exam, if we don't work hard … Hey, are you listening to me at all? Xu Bin felt that he had lost a little face, and was unhappy in his heart, so he took out his status as the secretary of the branch office and started to lecture. However, he saw that Lin Jin's back was facing her, and was happily reading that old tattered book, not listening to her words at all.

However, Lin Jin did not get angry, and continued to smile: What you do not understand, you do not understand. However, I still have to thank you for your good will! Looking at Xu Bin's expression, he knew that it would be impossible to stay here and read in peace, so he pretended to look at the sky, Alright, it's getting late, I should go back to eat lunch. Lord Secretary, please give me back the book!"

Xu Bin stared at him, seeing his calm expression, he had no choice but to return the book to him, gloomily watching him leave.

Seeing Lin Jin's figure fade out of sight, Xu Bin subconsciously picked up his phone to take a look. The time displayed on his phone was: 9: 24 in the morning, still a long distance away from noon. Damn it, how dare you hide from me? Am I that scary? Don't let me meet you next time! Xu Bin thought in his heart as he stomped his feet.

CHAPTER 2 - XU YUN'S STRANGE DISEASE

Outside of the campus was a street. A few nearby schools looked very prosperous. was a little depressed when he arrived on the street. Although there were quite a few pages missing, he still retained quite a few of the strange folk arts that he had never heard of. With a single glance, he immediately felt that there were quite a few corroborating points to the things that he had learned from reading the ancient Daoist scriptures, causing him to be able to resolve quite a few doubts.

He was so excited that he paid the money and took the book to the school to read. In order to prevent others from disturbing him, he even laid down a bird's scent that was made from dozens of different insect bodily fluids. Unfortunately, after looking at it for less than an hour, he met Xu Bin and retreated helplessly.

As a student, Lin Jin rented a house outside the school in a suburban area behind the Tung Shan. It was about two hours away from the school. It would take about 10 minutes to get there by bus. Logically speaking, students from foreign places were not allowed to rent a room in schools like theirs. However, his uncle and the Guanling High School's Principal were good friends, so a small matter like this would naturally not be a big deal.

After exiting the school, other than Tung Shan, there was no other place suitable for reading. He thought for a bit, and still decided to return.

When he saw the group of people waiting for his car under the license plate, he smiled and walked in the direction of the residence.

It wasn't that he didn't want to get home soon, but he was actually very envious of the crowd of people who were squeezing around in the car. At least, they wouldn't vomit after only a few minutes on the car like he did, and even the smell of gasoline made him feel a little nauseous. He didn't even know what was going on with this kind of pure biological reaction. Even if he had long since mastered the Ren Du and Du and the zhenqi in his body were to be filled to the brim with milk, it wouldn't be able to change his physique that would cause him to faint the moment he got on the carriage. This made him feel very strange.

Therefore, he would never take a car other than when he was away. However, Lin Jin was also not walking like an ordinary person. To him, walking was also a form of cultivation.

After adjusting his breathing, Lin Jin focused his thoughts on the bottom of his feet. He looked into the distance, carefully feeling the sensation on his body, and walked forward step by step. Gradually, he felt a warm current rising from his heart to his calves, thighs, and it wrapped around his buttocks. After a while, Lin Jin felt a cool air seeping through his skin and fusing into the flow of the zhenqi in his body.

He did not care about the changes in his body at all as he continued to walk forward with a serious expression on his face. As early as two years ago, when he learned this kind of walking technique, he already knew that as long as he was distracted enough to pay attention to this feeling, or tried to control the direction of the zhenqi, he would immediately leave this state.

Although the amount of zhenqi that he had accumulated through walking was not as much as the amount of zhenqi he had gained by refining Qi, it was better than trading without money. As long as he walked away, the spirit energy of heaven and earth would enter his body through his skin, and he would become a zhenqi. Moreover, this kind of cultivation technique was far more difficult to cultivate than any other cultivation technique he knew.

In this state, Lin Jin almost didn't feel the passage of time. The journey of two hours, he felt like it had only taken 10 minutes.

The place that Lin Jin rented was one of those small houses that were three stories high, with a small staircase beside it. His room was on the third floor. At this time, the owner of the house, Aunt Wang, was preparing lunch. When he saw him return, he immediately welcomed him warmly: "Xiao Jin is back, come come come come. When my Little Yun girl is back today, I specially made a table of good food for you. She was going to pull him.

Aunt Wang was a rural woman around fifty years old, who was very hospitable like the locals. Sometimes, even Lin Jin, who was very indifferent to the affairs of the world, felt that it was hard to bear. Looking at her posture, Lin Jin knew that he wouldn't be able to push her off today, so he smiled lightly: Then thank you Aunt Wang, I'll go upstairs and put down my bag. Hey! Then hurry up and come over! There's only one dish left that hasn't been cooked!

Seeing him walk upstairs, the Aunt Wang returned to the hall with a smile. A woman came out of the kitchen and asked, Mom, is he the tenant you used to talk about on the phone? It seems to be very cold!

The lady was called Xu Yun, she was rather tall, her figure was extremely graceful, and had a kind of gentle and peaceful beauty to her. What was particularly impressive was the bright eyes, so clear that they did not seem to have any earthly pollution, and it was hard to believe that such a woman was not the golden tree leaf of the city, but was born into such a humble rural family. It was a pity that her face was pale and faintly sickly.

Hearing her question, the Aunt Wang let out a sigh, and said: That's right, even though Xiao Jin looked very different, but he was actually a person who was cold on the outside but hot on the inside. Your father was bitten by a snake while collecting wild vegetables in the Tung Shan a month ago, and it was Xiao Jin who crawled in and carried your father down, and used some unknown medicinal herb to cure him. It's really hard to imagine how Xiao Jin's thin body could carry your father down from such a faraway place. What a good child!

AHH! Father was bitten by a snake last month? Why didn't you mention it on the phone? " Hearing his mother's words, Xu Yun nervously frowned, his jade hands unconsciously grabbing onto his apron, he was obviously very nervous about his father's injuries.

I was afraid you'd be worried! Besides, there's nothing wrong with your dad anyway. If you teach at school, then teach properly. Mom and Dad have proper sense of how things are at home! Oh right, Yun'er, you're already twenty, are you looking for a partner?" Seeing her daughter so nervous, Aunt Wang secretly cursed himself for talking too much. At the same time, he asked his daughter about her marriage and changed the topic.

Sure enough, when Xu Yun heard his mother asking him this question, his face immediately flushed red, and he said shyly: Mom, who would I have, who would I have found so quickly … We'll talk about it in a few years!"

Afraid that she would bring up this matter again, Xu Yun immediately asked, Mom, you said that Xiao Jin knows how to cure the snake poison? Also, is father injured? Did you go to the hospital to check?

Aunt Wang grinned: Alright, I've been well for a long time. I've already checked the hospital and found nothing. In the past, he always watched Xiao Lin fiddle around in his room with grass roots and bark, but he never thought that Xiao Lin would have such medical skills. However, Xiao Lin didn't specialize in medicine, and he was still in high school! If it wasn't for his young age, I'd like to introduce you to him. Why are you pulling me, Lil 'Lin is a good person! In a few years, this might not even be possible. In any case, you're not much older than him, and you're so beautiful, so whoever marries you will be lucky!

Mom … Xu Yun did not expect that after going around and around, all the way to her, his face had turned even redder. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Lin Jin standing at the door with a smile. It was unknown how long he stood there for, but he felt weak inside.

Lin Jin happened to hear the words of the Aunt Wang. Although the girl in front of him looked extremely charming, he did not have any other thoughts. Seeing that Aunt Wang was still talking nonstop and the lady was so embarrassed that his small hands did not even know where to let go, Lin Jin immediately knocked the door and got his help, Aunt Wang, I'm here. This must be the Sister Xu Yun that you have been mentioning a lot?

AHH! Xiao Jin came and quickly sat down. Yes, this is your Aunt Wang's daughter. He just came back from Shanghai and is a primary school teacher. Beautiful, isn't he? Ah, Old Xu... Are the dishes not ready yet? You old bastard, hurry up, the guests are all here! Seeing Lin Jin, Aunt Wang smiled widely, not paying any attention to the discussion behind his back that he had heard.

Sigh! I've finished it. The last dish, Boiled Fish, is a good dish that I'm good at! Just as he finished speaking, a muscular man from the countryside carefully carried a large bowl to the living room, placed the bowl in the middle of the table, and said to Lin Jin with a beaming smile: Xiao Lin, do not stand, quickly take a seat, and quickly take a seat. It's just like your own home, do not be separated!

He sat down and then pulled his daughter to introduce her to him. Aunt Wang glared at him, "We've already known each other for a long time, and there's even a need for you to introduce us. It's all your fault.

Uncle Xu was obviously a little afraid of her. After hearing her words, he looked at Shi Jinzhong who was hung on the wall and laughed awkwardly, Aiya, it's almost time. It's all my fault, it's my fault. Would you like to drink some wine, Little Lin?"

Lin Jin rejected his good intentions repeatedly, and the four of them started to eat.

Even though he already knew the personality of the couple, Lin Jin still found it hard to endure. He decided to not speak anymore and buried his head in his food, feeling a sense of warmth in his heart. However, even though it was like this, he had already made up his mind that he wouldn't come to his house to eat from now on even if he was beaten to death. As for Xu Yun, thinking that he had just seen what his mother had said, she was still embarrassed. She ate her meal in small bites, not daring to raise her head.

After eating his fill, Lin Jin thanked her. Just as he was about to go upstairs, he suddenly saw a burst of enchanting cyan light appear on Xu Yun's forehead, and then disappear. He could not help but be surprised, and immediately looked at her.

Although Lin Jin was younger than her by three years, because of his stable personality, he now looked like an adult. He didn't look any younger than Xu Yun's male classmates, and might even be a little more mature. Adding on what happened before dinner, in that moment, Xu Yun felt extremely uncomfortable all over under his gaze, and turned around to walk back to his room.

Unexpectedly, Lin Jin grabbed her hand and shouted: Wait! Sister Xu Yun, can you let me see your hand?!

In Xu Yun's entire life, he had never seen a boy grabbing onto her hands before. Now that he was grabbing onto her with his warm and powerful hands, he felt both embarrassed and guilty at the same time. He immediately struggled, wanting to struggle free, while looking at his mother with a pleading look.

Although Aunt Wang was usually careless, in reality, he was a straightforward person. When he saw Lin Jin's serious expression, he suddenly became nervous and asked anxiously: Xiao Lin, what's wrong, but is there a problem with Yun'er?

Lin Jin nodded his head heavily, and did not answer her. Aunt Wang was even more nervous as he quickly comforted his daughter and told Xu Yun to give him his hand. Xu Yun returned to his senses, and when he saw the expression in Lin Jin's eyes that did not contain the slightest of distracting thoughts, he realized that he had misunderstood him.

Although she did not know what had happened, hearing her mother's greeting, she could only suppress her heart beat as she timidly extended her hand to him.

Looking at this small hand that was as white as jade and as soft as bone, Lin Jin actually did not have the slightest bit of evil intent in his heart.

Secretly operating the zhenqi, Lin Jin told Xu Yun to open his palm, while his right hand held onto his sword fingers and shook in the air a few times, then quickly aimed for the Shenmen acupoint on the side of Xu Yun's wrist.

Although his hand only trembled a few times, he had already drawn an invisible rune in the air.

His method of visit was an extremely profound Draw technique written on the Tao Book, he did not need the Glyph Paper, he only needed the zhenqi. However, he couldn't make the slightest mistake with this method. Otherwise, it wouldn't be effective at all. Lin Jin had to think about it over ten thousand times before he could become proficient in it.

Xu Yun immediately felt a hot stream of air flowing from his forehead. Immediately after, he saw a black line rise from the spot where he had been hit, moving quickly towards the center of his brows through his snow-white arm.

Seeing this unusual situation, the Aunt Wang's family of three felt a chill from the bottom of their hearts, and let out a surprised cry. Only Lin Jin nodded his head, as if he was relieved.

Xiao Jin, what happened to Yun'er? Pointing at the thread, Aunt Wang and Uncle Xu were so frightened that they couldn't speak properly. Xu Yun also looked at him with a fearful gaze, wanting to see something from his eyes.

It's fine! Lin Jin slowly shook his head, It's just an invasion of the wind poison, I'll prescribe a medicine for Big Sister Xu Yun later. It'll be fine very soon.

Hearing his words, the Aunt Wang heaved a sigh of relief, patted his chest and said, You really scared us to death. Xiao Jin, your Big Sister Yun is the blood of our husband and wife, without her, we won't be able to live. You must treat her. Whatever medicine you want, no matter how much it costs, we will buy it.

Although Xu Yun's expression did not change, there was still some hesitation in his words, and he faintly felt that this matter was not that simple. However, after hearing his parents say these words, his heart was immediately moved, and he did not even have time to think about it, as he called out, Father! Mom, hold them and start crying." The couple did not expect that something like this would happen right after they had just finished their meal. They hurriedly patted their daughter's back to comfort her.

AHH! I do have the ingredients, but it's just that it's a little troublesome to concoct the ingredients. Aunt Wang, don't worry! I will definitely treat big sister Xu Yun. " Seeing the warm look on Aunt Wang's face, Lin Jin thought for a moment and used a relaxed tone to speak to them.

With that, he turned and walked upstairs. No one noticed that when Lin Jin turned around, an extremely pained expression flashed across his calm face.

CHAPTER 3 - LIN JIN'S EXQUISITE HAND

He walked into the room and closed the door carefully. Lin Jin pulled out a small box from under the bed. Opening it, one could see that the box was divided into dozens of small, sealed boxes, and each of them contained a type of medicinal ingredient. These medicinal ingredients, were all things that he had gathered during his spare time. Other than the few he had collected from the Tung Shan, each and every one of them had cost him a lot of money.

Looking at her situation, she must have been infected by the green spirit's ghost aura. Luckily, she was not deeply involved, otherwise, it would have been difficult for her to be saved. He never thought that there would actually be a ghost like Qingmei in this world. According to the books, the most sinister thing was that it needed to be restrained by something extremely positive. However, Sister Xu Yun's body is weak, if it was a positive person, then I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to withstand it … Lin Jin looked at the herbs in the chest as he racked his brains over the method to crack the Cyan Meet's evilness.

Although the prescription was already written in the book, each person's physique and the degree of toxicity varied, and the way and amount of medicine used varied as well. Traditional Chinese medicine was not as simple as western medicine, each medicinal herb contained several or even dozens of ingredients, and many diseases only worked when the ingredients of several medicinal herbs were combined together. If it was not properly matched, then it would be ineffective if it was light, but if it was serious, the disease would worsen or even die. Because of this, if one wanted to become a true Chinese doctor, one must not only be proficient in the pathology of medicine, but also have the experience of a large number of drugs. This was one of the reasons why traditional Chinese medicine had declined.

Even though Lin Jin was young, he had been focusing on the Qi art since he was over ten years of age. In the past six or seven years of growth, he had long since transformed the Profound Qi in his body into zhenqi and stored them inside his body. Furthermore, three years ago, he had completely mastered the Ren Du and Du. And because there was often some deviation in his training, just like how he had fainted in class yesterday. Thus, over the years, he had spent his free time reading a large amount of Buddhist and medical books. In addition to his own Qi Cultivation experience, his understanding of the human body and the use of medicine had long surpassed many of the so-called medical authorities.

When he held Xu Yun's hand and it was cut off, Lin Jin had stealthily inputted a strand of zhenqi into her body and circled it once. At this point in time, he already knew the situation in Xu Yun's body like the back of his hand. But even so, because of the strange nature of the Cyan Demon Poison that Xu Yun was inflicted with, Lin Jin still did not have much confidence in using as much medicine as possible.

Seems like I'll have to try the medicine first! After thinking for a moment, Lin Jin took out a hundred years old wild ginseng, a hundred years old Poria Cocos, three hundred years old tortoise shell, a storage technique, a few kinds of spirit herbs and placed them on a wooden board.

After that, he rummaged through his backpack and took out a purplish-black wooden knife.

This blade was made from rosewood that had been buried in the ground for five hundred years. Its density and hardness were both very high and contained a trace of negative spirit energy.

Because GuangLing did not produce this kind of wood, at first, in order to obtain such a small piece of sandalwood, Lin Jin had to travel all over the city, but he didn't get anything in the end, and in the end, used a Heat Dispersing Rune to cure a antique dealer who had fever. When the antique dealer heard that he was looking for this, he first told him to keep it safe and sound first told him to keep it safe.

After cutting many medicinal herbs into small pieces, Lin Jin frowned and placed each piece by piece into his mouth, carefully tasting how dense the medicinal properties were.

One by one, the medicinal herbs were digested by his stomach juice, and as the medicinal properties dissolved into his blood, they continued to stimulate his body. Lin Jin's consciousness sank into his body, carefully feeling the effects of the medicinal herbs on the body and meridians of the zhenqi, then he memorized all of the responses one by one.

This method of distinguishing the medicinal properties was found in the books. It far surpassed some of the most sophisticated instruments of the modern era. However, it required a certain amount of inner force cultivation before it could be practiced. However, most of the Chinese medicine today only focused on medical knowledge and pharmacology. At most, they could only follow the pictures in the books to find out the direction of the human body's meridians. Without the zhenqi's personal experience, if they knew but did not know, how could they truly cure them? No wonder the ancient Chinese Godly Doctors emerged one after another, while modern clowns openly categorized traditional Chinese medicine as a form of deception, pseudoscience and so on. It was truly laughable and lamentable!

After a long while, Lin Jin woke up from his vision, and his heart was already filled with confidence. After weighing the various medicinal ingredients, Lin Jin placed them into a small clay jar, added half a jar of clear water, placed it on a small stove that he specially used to fry medicine, and started a fire to fry it.

Carefully watching the fire, Lin Jin would add in half a jar of clear water every time the water in the jar was about to dry. This repeated ten times, and only when the medicinal smell in the room was dense enough to smoke did Lin Jin extinguish the fire and pour the medicinal liquid out to let it cool down.

At this time, it was already six in the afternoon. Aunt Wang had come to call him to eat, but he had already rejected him in the name of decocting medicine. Seeing that his room was filled with a strong smell of medicine, Aunt Wang felt an indescribable sense of gratitude.

What Lin Jin was afraid of was only the enthusiasm of Aunt Wang's family, but he was extremely fond of the farmer-flavoured meals that they cooked, so he naturally did not reject them.

When the cooldown finished, Lin Jin did not send the medicine over. Instead, he sat on the bed and meditated. These medicinal ingredients were originally all good medicine that Lin Jin had bought to replenish the zhenyuan in his body and to save his life. Just now, he had only analyzed the medicinal properties of the medicine, and had yet to absorb the medicinal properties of the medicine he had consumed. This time, he had used up almost a third of Lin Jin's wealth, and with reluctance, he decided to make up for his past misgivings and refine the medicine.

After 8 o'clock at night, Lin Jin woke up and saw that it was almost time, he picked up his bowl and headed downstairs.

Just then, Xu Yun who had just finished his shower and was in the living room watching television, suddenly smelled a strange smell that seemed to come from somewhere. Just as he was wondering what kind of smell was this, he heard a series of dong dong dong knocks on the door.

Xu Yun immediately stood up and walked towards the door. Opening it to take a look, although he was young, he looked mature. And that strange smell came from his bowl. It was a hundred times stronger than the smell from before.

Xu Yun was smothered to the point that he couldn't breathe, he immediately covered his nose with one hand and kept fanning himself with the other, causing him to feel a wave of despair: Oh my god! Could it be that this thing is the medicine this guy is going to give me? I might as well be dead.

Lin Jin naturally did not know what she was thinking at the moment, and said: The medicine is already ready, now is the best time for it, as long as you drink it, you will be fine.

Xu Yun frowned and shook his head like a rattle, showing that he would never drink the medicine.

At this time, her reaction was already within his expectations, so he did not mind. He walked past her into the house, placed the medicine on the table, and asked: Did Aunt Wang go out?

Xu Yun had only gone inside to cover his nose earlier, but now that she saw him walk in, he greatly regretted not locking him outside earlier. Seeing him ask such a question, the only thing he could do was to reveal a small crack under his white lotus root like arm. He hurriedly said, Someone was looking for me just now. My mom and dad are out now. Hurry up and take the medicine away. I won't drink it. It smells terrible! He covered his mouth as he was afraid that there would be a trace of smell.

CHAPTER 4 - BARBARIC ADMINISTRATION

This area was extremely popular as a self-made beverage called Tea Break. Aunt Wang would make it almost every two days when they were at home, and he would often invite Lin Jin to tea together with his. As a result, Lin Jin was extremely familiar with this living room.

When are your parents coming back? After sitting down on the sofa, Lin Jin picked up the remote control and switched from the popular Korean dramas to the news channels.

Seeing how Lin Jin ignored him, Xu Yun did not know why but he could not get angry, as if it was very natural. But when he thought about how her parents would force her to drink the medicine if they came back, she couldn't help but feel nervous.

Xu Yun rolled his eyes and thought of an idea. If no one was watching, he could pour the medicine and trick them into drinking it. Since Xiao Jin said earlier that this was not some extraordinary illness, then there shouldn't be any problems! When the holidays arrived and he returned to school, he would at most have another check-up. He didn't believe that the doctors in the hospital could not compare to him.

After making up his mind, Xu Yun took a deep breath and changed his expression. He put his hand down, enduring the intense strange smell, and moved towards the sofa. Xiao Jin, can I call you Xiao Jin? Xu Yun resisted the urge to rush to the balcony to take a breath, and said to Lin Jin in a friendly manner".

Lin Jin nodded his head, still watching the television.

Thank you for worrying about my illness, Xiao Jin. I'll take my medicine later, will you please go back upstairs? Big sister just finished showering, and I still have one piece of clothing that I haven't changed!

Oh? After all, Lin Jin was a boy who had not lived until now, and most of the books he read were ancient books. As a result, when he entered the room, he didn't look at her seriously. When he raised his head, he saw that her long hair was somewhat moist, and her pure white skin still had some droplets of water on it.

Lin Jin watched dumbfoundedly, and couldn't help but become a little absent-minded. Whirlwind's gaze sharpened as he nodded his head and walked towards the door.

Seeing him leave obediently, Xu Yun heaved a sigh of relief, and immediately covered his nose and mouth to prevent the strange smell from entering.

That's not right! It can't be that she wanted to pour out the medicine as soon as I left, right? " Lin Jin walked to the door, and upon thinking about the difference in her expression before and after, he became suspicious and stopped.

Turning around, he indeed saw that Xu Yun was covering his nose with an unbearable look on his face.

Seeing him turn around, Xu Yun shouted in his heart, , is there anything else?

I'm still a bit worried. Lin Jin smiled lightly and walked forward again.

To me, there is, there is nothing to be worried about. Seeing Lin Jin getting closer to him, Xu Yun suddenly felt a burst of fear, and hurriedly tried to cheer himself up: Calm down, you have to be calm, he's just a boy who's three years younger than you.

It's not that I don't trust you, Lin Jin laughed, I do not trust my medicine!

Without waiting for Xu Yun to understand the meaning behind his words, Lin Jin quickly pressed on the Acupoint on her shoulder and inputted a gentle zhenqi.

Xu Yun felt her body go soft, and then, to her horror, she found that he had lost control of her body.

But there was something else that frightened her even more. After Lin Jin pressed that button, he took the medicine and opened her mouth with one hand and took the medicine into her mouth with the other.

No, no, I don't want to drink it. Xu Yun moaned in his heart, but he was still unable to make a sound. He could only watch as Lin Jin slowly poured the medicine into her mouth.

It was unknown what method he used, but although Xu Yun desperately wanted to use his tongue to push the medicine out, every time he did so, it would become a voluntary act of swallowing the medicine down his throat. This strange medicine had a sour taste to it, it truly made her miserable.

Seeing that she had finished drinking the medicine, Lin Jin lightly pressed on her shoulder point and retrieved the zhenqi.

After regaining control of his body, Xu Yun immediately rushed to the balcony and threw up on the outside, but was unable to do anything. The strange smell in the room was nothing now.

Seeing her retching on the balcony for a long time, Lin Jin couldn't help but find it funny, and raised his voice: Alright, I've already consumed the medicine, it's useless to retch again, do you want to experience the feeling of the medicine running down your throat again?

Hearing his words, Xu Yun rushed into the room angrily, his snow-white fingers pointing at him: Lin Jin, you, you are going too far! She, who had never scolded before, felt wronged in her heart, but she didn't know how to scold him. She could only see sparkling and translucent tears rolling in her eyes as tears welled up in her eyes.

Lin Jin thought about it, and also felt that his methods were a bit too intense, he laughed dryly: Sister Yun, this is for your own good, but, don't you think that this medicine is a little sweet?

Still sweet? This medicine is so bitter, and you even teased me for being sweet … Eh? How could it not be bitter? After hearing his words, Xu Yun was so angry that his entire body was trembling, but in his heart, he subconsciously tried to recall the taste of the medicine. As expected, he felt a strange, sweet taste lingering in his mouth. In the blink of an eye, she felt less wronged.

But when he recalled how his unsightly appearance had been seen by this damned fellow, Xu Yun got angry again. He was about to say something when he suddenly felt a strong wave of heat rushing into his stomach.

Before he could react, he heard Lin Jin loudly shout, Crap, we've overused the medicine! He pointed his two hateful fingers at his again. Before he could say the word don't, his vision went dark and he fainted.

Seeing that she was about to fall, Lin Jin immediately used one hand to support her and picked her up. Sensing her light and flexible virgin body, Lin Jin didn't have time to think anymore as he gently placed her down on the sofa.

It's a good thing I acted quickly. Otherwise, once the medicinal properties take effect, you'll be in trouble again. After placing her on the sofa, Lin Jin suddenly felt the blood and Qi in his body churning a little as he looked at her peaceful and elegant sleeping face with a slight frown. He hurriedly muttered to himself as if he was concealing it, then silently circulated the blood and vitality of the zhenqi and quickly retreated.

Outside the door, Lin Jin heaved a heavy sigh of relief. He secretly felt that this atmosphere was not suitable for him at all.

Shaking his head, Lin Jin headed upstairs.

Just then, the Aunt Wang came back from outside. Seeing that he was about to go upstairs, he shouted at him from afar: Xiao Jin, is Yun'er's medicine ready?

Oh! Aunt Wang you're back, the medicine is ready, I just sent it to Sister Yun for her to eat, this medicine has the effect of calming her down, Sister Yun is currently lying on the sofa, carry her to the bed and sleep for the night, by tomorrow, her disease will be all right. Lin Jin explained as if nothing had happened. Oh. Hearing that his daughter was alright, Aunt Wang shouted at him gratefully, Thank you very much, Xiao Lin, come down to have some tea later!"

Hehe, it's nothing, it's nothing. You guys are so good to me, I've already treated you like family since a long time ago. Sister Yun is my sister too, this is what I should do, what I should do. Today, I'm a bit tired and would like to rest early, so I won't be drinking tea.

Oh! Aunt Wang thought that Lin Jin was tired from frying medicine, so he did not try to persuade his like he did in the past. He shouted gently: Then rest early, Aunt Wang will not disturb you anymore.

Sigh. Lin Jin's mind was still in a mess, he replied without thinking, and then headed to his own room.

CHAPTER 5 - INITIAL APPEARANCE OF TAO TECHNIQUES

Lying on the bed, Lin Jin looked at the ceiling in confusion. The feeling of impulse he felt when he saw Xu Yun sleeping just now was something he had never felt before in his seventeen years of life. He had never cared about the relationship between a man and a woman before, but he couldn't understand what had happened to him just now. It was as if he had the urge to hug her. Moreover, this urge was not something he could control.

What he didn't know was that this was just a normal impulse on the part of a mature man. Even a child would know a bit about a romance novel or a love TV show.

However, Lin Jin never read romance novels or television dramas. It was because he felt that those fake things were too disgusting to watch, especially some Korean dramas. Moreover, he almost never
